"Why did you suddenly become emotional? This isn't your style, Mr. Emerson." Carl tried his best to
suppress his laughter, but in the end, he laughed out.
With a gloomy face, Leonardo chopped the chicken on the chopping board with a great noise.
His cutting skill was superb.
Carl touched his neck and felt a shiver run down his spine. He took two steps back quietly.
After Leonardo finished chopping the chicken, he stuck the knife on the chopping board and said coldly,
"Take it to wash."
"Alright."
Carl didn't dare to refuse him.
Carl tidied up the kitchen countertop after he had washed the knife and board.
Suddenly, Leonardo asked, "Is everything alright?"
He said in an affirmative tone.
He had known Carl for a longer time than the time Summer and Jessica had known each other.
Leonardo could tell if something was wrong with Carl.
"It's alright. Why are you so drippy? Even Summer would dislike you if you keep acting like this." Carl
made an expression of disgust.
Leonardo usually ignored Carl's nonsense when he was serious.
Carl was diverting the topic. There was no way that Leonardo couldn't feel it.
Leonardo did not follow Carl's train of thought. He only asked what he wanted to know, "What
happened the day you went to save Jessica?"
On the day of Jessica's accident, he and Carl returned to the South Bay Villa together.
However, in the end, Carl was the only one who went up to save her.
After Carl went up, he quickly carried Jessica down. Leonardo only took a glance and knew something
bad happened.
As for what it was, Leonardo did not ask Carl, nor did Carl mention it again.
During the days that Jessica was hospitalized, Carl took care of her and stayed with her day and night.
Every day after work, Leonardo would accompany Summer to visit Jessica, or Summer would visit
Jessica in the afternoon. Then Leonardo would pick Summer up after work.
Leonardo didn't spend much time in the hospital, but when he picked Summer up and went home, he
heard Summer mention that Carl was probably frightened this time, so he stayed close to Jessica and
kept nervous.
Leonardo hadn't felt anything was wrong.
Carl and Jessica were lovers who liked bickering and fighting, but in fact, they cared more about each
other than anyone else.
It was reasonable for Carl to be nervous when something happened to Jessica.
However, when Leonardo and Summer came here today, he noticed Carl's abnormality in a short
period of time.
"Nothing," Carl paused. "It's Sivan's retaliation. Just a fight between two women."
He understated as if he were talking about the weather.
The calmer Carl was, the clearer that something was wrong.
Leonardo didn't respond.
After all, he could tell that Carl was not telling the truth.
Carl turned his head to look at Leonardo. However, Leonardo turned around and left.
Leonardo wasn't angry. He was reluctant to waste his time with Carl.
It wasn't too late for Leonardo to take the charge when Carl couldn't deal with it.
Although they were both from wealthy families, Carl's situation was different from Leonardo's.
Since Leonardo was a child, he had known that the Emerson's was a garbage dump where many
scumbags gathered.
The Jones family was not as rich as the Emerson family, but the relationship in the Jones family was
much simpler.
Carl's childhood was happy. His parents loved him and he had a harmonious family.
Because Carl had grown up in such an environment, he retained the spirit of youth. Sometimes, he
would be capricious when dealing with matters.
